2nd video showing the 4th axis setup
I added an extra stepper motor to drive the lathe, some some experimenting but it worked

this was done some time back , in summary a person can turn a leg out faster that the cnc machine
but the cnc can actually carve out a detailed carving on the turning , a person would need a lot of time to do this
It was a good experiment for me I did all the research , wiring and mechanical work and got advice form some professionals
